God bless you, Obama, I am very confident of you. You fix this nation. Please. My vote for you in advance. Americans, it is not time to judge by color. This nation is on right track. We needed these reforms long time ago. Ignored by republican idiots. This election is all about Rich v/s Middle Class Americans. God bless. Obama2012.

Fair is Fair

Very good news! Well, you all have been asking "where's the jobs, GOP?" Here you go. Since the 2010 shellacking, the unemployment rate has dropped almost 2 percentage points. Well done, GOP... well done!

Unemp will hit 7.9 by June or July. Add that to foreign success and this is pretty much a wrap. Say what you want but it'll be a uphill battle for the GOP.

Seems like Obama is actually a job creator . Can't wait to see what the job cremator has to say about that number ..

I'm waiting to see how the Republicans try to tear apart this statistic. They will, trust me.

President Obama’s “We Can't Wait” Executive Orders are paying off!

I bet the Republicans try to take credit for this one. As we know, this "do nothing congress" said no to anything this President have done to get the economy going. This is his glory, his work. GO President Obama 2012

once upon a horse

ok now I am going to wait and see how the GOP puts a negative spin on THIS!! The economy getting better under Obama is NOT what they have in plan for 2012.

The GOP opens mouth and inserts foot

How many of those are people falling off unemployment because their time ran out as opposed to those who actually got off unemployment because they found jobs?

Woo hoo!! Looks like the republican strategy to keep the economy in the tank is failing – and America is winning! Great news.

Congratulations President Obama. Only someone with your level of intelligence and foresight could make progress
in a Bush-destroyed economy.
